Double ends fabrics refer to those plain fabrics woven with double ends on the warp side and single end on the weft. In such kind of weave, the double ends on the warp side display an outstanding profile in longitudinal direction.
Mostly, the warp-side yarn is in 40s and the weft side yarn varies between 16s and 20s. In some cases the yarn in 100/2 is adopted for both the warp and weft. The double ends cloths,woven with fine yarns, after being dyed and finished, are normally subject to waterproof treatment. The cloths with such kind of finishing mainly are used for raincoats and blouses. |
